Chapter 6- An Unexpected Game
The next morning I woke up early so George told me he would help me to learn Quidditch.
"So the first thing you want to-"
"Hey Georgie!" Someone shouted.
I look over and see Fred running over. George looked a little annoyed but softened up when he came over.
"Hey Fred. I'm teaching Ashley here how to play Quidditch."
"Oh nice here let's play against each other to show her." Fred said with a grin.
George laughed. "If you won't get hurt then yeah."
"Same to you Georgie."
"Whatever you say Freddy."
They open up the case and take out a huge ball.
"Alright so this is the Quaffle!" They say in sync.
"The chasers try to get this and pound it into as many people as-"
"Fred. No. That ball is supposed to be thrown through those circles." George said pointing over at the field.
I nod in excitement. "What's that one?"
"That is a nasty one." George commented.
"Very rude." Muttered Fred.
They unhook the chains and the ball flies up. I look up and realize it's coming straight for me. George realizes this and tackles me out of the way while Fred hits it with the bat. My heartbeat accelerates as it flies away and I take a deep breath and look into the eyes of George.
"Well, that's an interesting ball."
He laughs and realizes he's lying completely on me. "You comfortable?" He says with a wink.
I smirk and punch him lightly in the arm as he rolls off. "You still have to show me that one."
I point to a small golden one with wings.
"That my dear Ashley is why your here. That's the golden snitch."
"Gives the team 100 points and you win." Fred says.
"Yeah but they are fast."
"Realllyyyyy fast." Fred says with wide eyes.
"But you have to chase it. That's your job."
I nod. "Alright then. Golden snitch is what I gotta worry about."
"Exactly." They say in sync.
I laugh. "You two could be conjoined twins."
"Maybe we are." They say again in sync.
"Stop now before I separate you two." I say with a smirk.
"There's two of us one of you."
"So...?" I begin.
They suddenly rush forward and each take my arm and drag me inside. "So we can easily beat you."
I roll my eyes. I would be lying if I said I wasn't really liking these boys.
